The Gibson J-45 Faded 50's at a glance.

Based on the original from the early 1940's, the Gibson J-45 Faded 50's comes with the outfit typical of the era. Thus, the round-shoulder construction consists of a Sitka spruce top and a mahogany body, which combine to produce a clear yet warm vintage sound. At the same time, the round mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard inspires with excellent playability in all 20 frets, which are marked with high-quality mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The 44 mm wide bone nut and fitted saddle promise clean intonation throughout the 628 mm scale. The characteristic headstock features classic Grover tuners with butterbean buttons, which help to tune the 6 steel strings easily and precisely. The dyed top wood is surrounded by a filigree multi-ply binding that perfectly matches the single-ring soundhole rosette. Adjacent to the soundhole is a large tortoise pickguard positioned to give the guitar a custom appearance. The instrument is completed by the ultra-thin nitrocellulose burst finish. To ensure that the Round-Shoulder can be used on stage without any problems, a high-quality pickup system from L.R. Baggs is built into the body, which has a control in the sound hole. The scope of delivery includes a sturdy hardshell case.
